If
you've had more than 5 beers in your life, you'd know this is easily
the best beer city in the States, and arguably the world. The variety of
styles and the quality of what's very easily available is second to
none. And like atmcash says - throw in the rest of Oregon and it's
without question.

In Portland alone you've got Deschutes,
Breakside, Commons, Hair of the Dog, Cascade (okay, mostly based out of
Raccoon Lodge in Beaverton), Upright, Hopworks, and Gigantic all making
stuff that would stand toe-to-toe with the best in the nation, and
arguably with more creativity. There are a lot of others (Migration,
Laurelwood, Alameda, etc.) that I don't know if I'd considered
world-class, but are fine for getting a pint.
